Oliver Kessling has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10717238
    Abstract: In a method for the further processing of a product (30) that is preferably prefabricated in large numbers, the product has a surface (31) for an additive multi-dimensional application of material. Information for the additive multi-dimensional application of material is input into a device in which the multi-dimensional application of material is digitised from this information and is deconstructed into elements that are suitable for the additive application of the application of material to the surface (31). The prefabricated product (30) is introduced into a device (I) for additive application of the material application such that the elements for the additive multi-dimensional application of material on the surface (31) are assembled in accordance with the information using an additive manufacturing method.

  • Patent number: 10040249
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a three-dimensional object (50) by means of generative construction in a direct constructional sequence from at least one solidifiable material. At least one material component is discharged in a programmable way via a control device in the direct constructional sequence and, as a result of the discharge, produces structurally different regions of the object (50) that are joined together, wherein geometric relationships obtained during the discharge already correspond to the object (50).

  • Patent number: 9539765
    Abstract: In a method for discharging a volume flow consisting of successive drops to produce a three-dimensional object of solidifiable material present in a fluid phase, the fluid phase of the material is introduced into a material storage means. A pressure (p) is applied to the fluid phase, in order to discharge the material in drops out of a cyclable outlet opening to build up the three-dimensional object in a construction chamber. A method is provided for achieving a constant, discontinuous volume flow by the pressure (p) being regulated via a closed-loop control in the event of a change in the viscosity of the fluid phase of the material, while maintaining the other process parameters, to achieve a predetermined drop size. The pressure is applied by a conveying element, the average displacement velocity of the conveying element per discharged drop being converted as a measured variable into the control variable for the closed-loop control.

  • Patent number: 8923005
    Abstract: An electrical component and a method for the manufacture thereof, comprising a connection arrangement between an active surface of an electrical component and a carrier, wherein electrical connecting elements are disposed in a connection zone on the active surface and/or on the carrier, and at least one spacer element is provided, which is disposed on the active surface and/or on the carrier. The at least one spacer element has a smaller height than the connecting elements before the connecting elements are reflowed to produce the electrically conductive connection, and is preferably disposed in an edge region of the connection zone.
